Delivered 3 months back and my hair is falling in handfuls, literally clumps in the comb daily. Itna kabhi nahi gira pehle. Is this a normal post pregnancy thing or should i be worried? Same here anyone?
With my PCOS history, I was terrified of hair fall, but it's actually just a normal hormonal shift called telogen effluvium. It usually peaks around 3-4 months postpartum, just keep up with your iron and multivitamin supplements.
My cousins told me that hair fall starts 3 months after baby is born because of hormone changes. It sounds a bit scary, but they said it naturally gets better after some time.
Beta, this is very normal after delivery because your body becomes weak. Eat healthy soaked almonds, use home-made amla hair oil, and don't take tension, your hair will grow back slowly.
Honestly, instead of expensive parlor treatments, just get a short haircut to manage it easily and keep taking your basic calcium and iron tablets. It's just a temporary phase and will stop on its own.
Your body has gone through a big change to bring a new soul into this world. Keep a positive mind, do regular oiling gently, and remember that this phase is temporary.
It's mainly due to postpartum hormonal drops. At my hospital's mother-care session, the doctors clearly explained that estrogen levels crash after delivery, which causes the shedding, but you can always ask your dermatologist for pregnancy-safe hair serums.
Arrey, don't stress too much about the hair fall, it's just your pregnancy hormones leaving the building! It looks scary when you wash your hair, but trust me, it stops on its own in a few months.
My doctor told me that managing nutrition postpartum is key, especially since I had GD. Low iron can make hair fall worse, so make sure you are eating a balanced diet rich in protein and green veggies.
Your hormones are just resetting after delivery. I kept up with gentle walking and basic yoga after my doctor allowed it, which really helped my blood circulation and general hair health, but give it time.
I've heard postpartum hair fall can be quite intense. Does taking prenatal vitamins even after delivery help in reducing it, or is it completely unavoidable?
My baby is a toddler now and my hair is back to normal! Around 4 months postpartum, I thought I'd go bald, but it really is just a phase that passes by the time baby turns one.
I am in my 3rd trimester loving my thick glossy hair, but fully prepared to lose half of it in a few months! It's just the postpartum hormonal scam we all have to go through.
